THE CURSE IN AFRICA.


Fearful Consequences That Have Fol-
lowed in the Wake OF the Infamous
Traffic.
White men have caused great and
most widespread havoc ayaong the In
dams of this country by introducing
whisky, or, as they cali it, "fire
water" England is guilty of forcing
opium upon China, and now all civ
ilized countries seem to unite in adding
to the degradation of Africa. Rev. j.
r. Wood, in recent address to the
British Baptist Total Abstinence Asso-
citation, referring to the magnitude and
destructive influence of the liquor
traffic in Africa, said: 'The exports
to Africa from Great Britain, Ger
many, Portugal and the United States
in about year amounted to nearly
100000 gallons! And the gallons
are multiplied many times before they
are dealt out to the natives. One of
the National African Company's steam
ers recently carried $4,000 cases of gin
and rum for the supply of two fac
tories only. Mr.. Bently says he has
heard of so, 900 or 10000 cases of gin
as the annual sale of certain factories
of the Dutch House TO save carriage
expense pure alcohol is sometimes
used as an article of trade. The Hot
tentots of the south have been eXtir-
pated, and brandy is the agent with
which they were destroyed. The fu-
ture of the Catfres depends on drink
being kept from them. The Basutos
have persisted in large numbers through
spirit drinking; those who did not die
were wrecks of their former selves;
delirium tremens was most common
among their chiefs. 1t looks as if the
whole tribe would be crushed, without
visible hope of rescue. In Loango spir-
its are the chief article of barter, and
Mr.. Bently was told it would be in vain
to talk to chiefs about hiring laborers
after eleven o'clock in the morning, for
the principal men would be drunk at
that hour! The effect on trade is high
" injurious; in some districts it as
sumes the character and proportions of
a calamity. People soaked with gin
and rum and brandy are worth moth
ing for business, either at home or
abroad, Distilleries thrive, but where
they thrive nothing else can; indus
tries of all sorts flag, and in the end
fail. These African people pray to be
delivered from this desolating scourge.
Stop the canteens; the white man
must stop from giving us brandy if he
wishes to save US, a powerful chief APP

A Home Threat.


Archdeacon Farrar, in a recent SER
mon, presents somewhat novel. but
certainly very cogent argument for
the support of Missions in barbarous
o. semi-civilized countries. 1t is a
home thrust:
Emissions are incumbent on us, be-
cause-to our shame he it spoken, ana
l hope it will 60 home to the heart Oh
every Englishman here-we have taken
with us all over the world ruinous
and clinging curse, the curse of drink.
1t is not the only wrong we have done
by any means. The kidnapper has gone
forth from us to the sweet Pacific ISL
ands; we were for years guilty of the
execrable slave-trade. The diseases we
have inflicted have been bad enough,
but our drink is worst of all; and as
yet the conscience of this nation is
as hard as the neither milestone to the
fact of our guilt. Let the shame.
full truth be spoken, that mainly
because of drink, our footsteps among
savage races have again and again
been footsteps dyed in blood. The
wild tribes of America, the once flour
ishing Hottentots and Kaffirs, the no.
BILE Maoris of New Zealand, the native
tribes of Madagascar, decimated, de-
graded, perishing, uplift to us in
wrath and in supplication their APP
pealing, their indignant hands. We
have cursed India with our drink and
our drunkenness; and at this moment,
after SO short an occupation, we are
cursing Egypt with it too. We have
poured upon these nations the walls
of this plague of ours, this vice of
our people, this bane and leprosy
of our civilization - are we not
bound to give them the antidote?
There Is only one course which can
hush the voices which louder and loud
er are pleading trumpet-tongued to
God against this nation, and that is to
give them the blessing and the anti
dote to this crime which we have taken
to them; that is the only course which
can avert the omen of our crimes"

Temperance Work.


The annual meeting of the National
Temperance Society and publication
House was held in New York recently.
More literature has been printed and
circulated, and the receipts of the pub
LEGATION department have been greater,
than in any former year of its exist
ence. One hundred and twenty-five
new publications have been issued.
The full catalogued list of the publica-
tons of the society now numbers l, 1913.
Thirty seven million four hundred
fifty-three thousand nine hundred and
fifty pages of books, tracts and papers
have been printed the past year, maxi
ing I'll, All, APT pages since the organi-
cation of the society. Eleven new
books have been issued especially
adapted for Sunday-school libraries,
and S97, 691 volumes have been pub
lished. The total receipts for publica-
tons have been $54, 1862 the last
twelve months, and for donations

LAGER BEER.
Its Demoralizing Effect Among Working
Women in New York City.

Its Demoralizing Effect Among Working
Women in New York City.
In writing concerning women as
wage-earners, Anna R. Brown, super
intendent of the "Women's Branch of
the New York City Mission" says:
The greatest decentralization to the
working-women of the present day
comes from drinking lager beer. Since
that beverage has become so popular,
workingmen have been in the habit of
having it served at their meals, and,
gradually, many of the wives and
daughters have become confirmed beer
drinkers. This custom has also low
cred the standard of morality in other
ways The effect of beer-drinking
among the Germans in their own coun-.
try may not be very bad that can be.
accounted for, perhaps, by the fact that
the beer is better and the climate DIFF
ferent. But L do know that the effect.
Of beer-drinking among Germans in
this country is bad. The custom,
among both the women and the men,
is to treat their friends to beer, and our
visitors, who call at their homes, are
constantly seeing the evidence of this
custom in the empty beer-glasses lying
on the table.
We have a large German population.
They have been brought up to drink
beer in their own country. and have
done so with impunity. When they
come here they give it to their children
as they did in Germany, but both chill
dren and grown people suffer from it
here, as l can assert from actual obser-
walton.
To illustrate: in one of our day
nurseries was little child, ten months
old, apparently very stupid, who cried
all day long. The matron told the
mother that the child acted constantly
as if he wanted something. The moth
er said it must be homesick, but it
kept on crying for five days. The mat
ron finally asked the mother if she
could not think of something that she
had been in the habit of giving to the
child which it did not have now. The
mother at last said:
81 don't know what it can be unless
it is beer"
"Why, you don't feed that child on
beer"
go yes, it always takes beer with
the father and me-"
We allowed the child to be brought
to the nursery on condition that we
should wean it from beer. This result
we accomplished in six weeks, and the
kfather and mother saw that the child
was so much better, in looks, health
and disposition, that they gave up
drinking beer themselves. Another
fact about this beer-drinking is that it
leads to whisky-drinking.

British Columbia Indians Who Induige In
Human Flesh.
Prof. j. jacobsen, who bts been in
the province for some year collecting
Indian curios for the Hamburg Museum
and writing up the habits, customs and
traditions of the aborighes, arrived
down on the Boscowitz iron Bella Coda.
The Professor spent all list winter at
Tucalo, the head of the bouthernmost
of the Bentinck arms, which is distant
from Bella Coda about Eighty miles.
Here he found the Indianin his print
tive state, wild, untubred savage,
with but scant knowledge of the arts
OF customs of civilization. The inlet,
running far inland, and being every
way out of the course d traders or
prospectors, is never visited, and the
Indians say no white menever went up
to the head of it befop. They live
there as they do in most places around
the coast, by hsnting ana fishing, deer
and fur-bearing animals Astounding in
large numbers. They are without
missionaries and canni,alism is ram
pant. The Professor tells of some
sickening sights which he Witnessed
there during the past winter, which at
this day one could scarcely be-
lieve capable of being witnessed SO
near home, did the information not
come from a reliable person. The GUS

ambitious for the honors of chieftain
betaking themselves to the woods and
after remaining there for some time,
coming back possessed of a spirit and
biting pieces of flesh from the bodies
of those whom they first meet. One
who wished to graduate last winter
went ~ut and remained from sight
for several weeks, though he came mar
the camp occasionally and made night
hideous with his yells. When he cane
to the tribe he came naked, notwth-
standing that it was the middle of
winter, with two or three feet of snow
on the ground. The first man he met
he seized, knocked down, and bit
piece out of his arm, which he chewed
ravenously. This was repeated many
times over, his face becoming besmeared
with blood and presenting fendsh
appearance. The victims of the would
be chieftain's bites receive in return for
their pains a small pecuniary compen-
sation, and it is an honor to carry the
scar. The more sears of this kind
decorate an Indians. body the moro
numerous are his honors, and wher
he comes to have a great many he be-
comes a chieftain himself in little
way. The bitter on one occasion made
a break for the Professor, who soon
gave him to understand that he was
going 10 experience something pretty
tough if he tackled him. He was not
further molested.
1t is the intention of Prof. jacobsen
to reside in the province permanently,
and he will go north again. He brought
down with him many valuable curios,
which will be forwarded to Germany.

Writing of the Deranged.

The manuscripts of neuropaths-a
word wide enough to include the slight
and the severe disturbances of mental
sanity-present certain typical charac-
teristics. They abound in italiciscd
words; in exclamation points and punct-
uations after almost every word; in fire.
quent use of capitals; in various sizes
of writing, particularly much very
large writing; and the like. 1t is not
often that such people have the oppor-
tunity of going to print and converting
the compositor to their peculiar system
of Typography. M. Richet prints a few
specimen pages of such an author, and
counts twelve different kinds of letters
in seventeen lines, besides the usual
capitals, exclamation points, and so on,
in great abundance. All this is signifi-
cant of an excited, prancing state Of
mind, closely allied to delirium and
mania. Science.
